Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this rope sink or float?

This rope is made of polypropylene, which is naturally buoyant and will float on water.

Is this rope safe for climbing?

No, this rope is for utility, securing, and barrier tasks only and should not be used for climbing or life-safety applications.

How do I prevent the ends from fraying?

You can melt the ends slightly with a heat source or wrap them with electrical tape.

Can I leave this rope outside in the rain?

Yes, it is resistant to rot and mildew, making it suitable for outdoor exposure.

Is the blue color permanent?

The color is integrated into the material during manufacturing, providing excellent fade resistance for general use.

What is the best way to clean the rope?

Simply rinse with fresh water and allow it to air dry away from direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Knot slipping or coming undone

Due to the synthetic nature of polypropylene, consider using a double-loop knot or a stopper knot to increase friction.

Rope feels stiff or rough

This is normal for new polypropylene rope; it will become more pliable with use or by soaking it in warm (not hot) water.

Surface fraying

Trim the frayed sections carefully with scissors and use a flame to lightly singe the end to prevent further unravelling.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Floats on water for marine safety
  • Highly resistant to rot, mildew, and common chemicals
  • Sturdy 3-strand twisted design for durability
  • High-visibility blue color
  • Versatile for both indoor and outdoor utility

Cons

  • Not intended for climbing or heavy-duty life-safety rigging
  • Can be prone to melting if exposed to extreme heat or friction
  • Synthetic fibers may feel stiffer compared to natural fiber ropes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Pegdev rope, avoid dragging it over sharp or jagged metal edges, as this can abrade the outer strands. When creating knots, ensure they are pulled tight, as synthetic rope can be slippery compared to cotton or hemp variations.

Care instructions include:

  • Cleaning: Rinse with fresh water after use in saltwater to remove salt crystals that may cause wear over time.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry, and dark environment when not in use to prevent UV degradation over long periods.
  • Inspection: Before each use, visually inspect the length for any deep cuts, fraying, or chemical discoloration that may weaken the core.
